Sarah's wedding weekend

A few weeks ago we spent the weekend in North Carolina for my friend Sarah's wedding.  The weekend started with a bridesmaids luncheon at the Old Salem Tavern, then the rehearsal dinner at the Winmock barn, and of course the beautiful wedding with the beautiful bride.  Congrats Sarah!

Bday dinner

Babette's Café was Doug's surprise for my birthday this year. Due to several conflicts, we were a few weeks late in celebrating, but Babette's was worth the wait! Delicious!

Weekend in Nashville

This past weekend we made a speedy visit to Nashville. It was rushed, but we still managed to see both of the grandmothers, parents, and a few friends.

Saturday afternoon I went for a walk with dear friends Elizabeth, Anna Rose, and Jessi.

We came back to a very happy Andrew needing some reading:

I keep telling Elizabeth he can't possibly get cuter!

après France

A bit of info from the past month and a half...

On July 14, we returned from France.

On July 16, we went to NC for 6th week at CBC.

A week after camp, I went back to school from preplanning.

Yesterday finished my 3rd week of school... 3 down, only 15 to go until Christmas break :)

Doug started class at Mercer this past week.

He starts a practicum Monday at a high school in Lawrenceville.

We miss France (and the Hendrixes) like crazy.

A few shots from our trip to Lauterbrunnen with Arlin and Pamela...

Burgundy

For our anniversary, Doug planned a trip to Bourgogne. We went to Beaune, where we saw the famous Hôtel Dieu hospital. We also saw wine barrel manufacturers working, visited the small village of Brançion, the once powerful abbey of Cluny, and drove through lots of vinyards!

Slow Tuesday

Today was a pretty relaxing day... I didn't even leave Meyzieu!

Doug and I went for a long walk this morning around a park in Meyzieu that was a WWII German fort. We made lunch for Arlin and Pamela and two men (members of the Christian Church in Lyon) that are re-doing their kitchen. We were able to use some of the bounty from the Hendrix garden!

We spent some time outside and then Doug went to church with Arlin while I stayed home with Pamela and helped clean up and get supper ready.

Hugues, nine year old from church came home with them to spend the night. Now Doug and Hugues are playing soccer... no words being exchanged, but it looks like they are having fun.
